CrayoNano – Decision to file for bankruptcy

Company news

2025-01-15 22:51:46

Reference is made to the NOTC announcements made by CrayoNano AS ("CrayoNano" or the "Company") on 12 September 2024 where the Company provided a company update on its liquidity situation, 19 September 2024 regarding the notice of an extraordinary general meeting to provide the Board with wide authorizations to pursue strategic alternatives, and the notice on 3 December 2024 regarding the initiation of subscription period for the convertible loan (the "Convertible Loan") to raise a minimum of NOK 15 million to facilitate strategic discussions, including the extension of the subscription period announced on 17 December 2024.

The subscription period for the Convertible Loan expired today at 17:00 hours (CET). Despite interest from several investors, the Company has not received subscriptions to cover the minimum amount of NOK 15 million, and the Company is thus not in a position to proceed with the Convertible Loan.

In the announcement from 3 December 2024 the Company communicated that it was dependent on raising a minimum of NOK 15 million to finance ongoing operations while the Company continued discussions with potential industrial partners in order to execute the Company's business plan of realizing the commercial potential of its technology. As the Convertible Loan did not materialize, the Company has exhausted all options to secure short-term financing, and in the opinion of the Board there are no alternatives to secure short-term financing and facilitate ongoing discussions with the industrial partners.

The board of directors of the Company (the "Board") has thus decided today to file for bankruptcy at the Trondheim district court, and expect to file for bankruptcy within the end of this week. The Board's decision is unanimous and is due to the fact that there is no longer a realistic opportunity to achieve a solution for the short-term liquidity situation.

The Company's management and board of directors have worked intensively to raise the necessary liquidity to sustain operations and facilitate the long-term business plan. In cooperation with various reputable financial advisors the Company has explored a number of different alternatives over the last year. Despite these efforts, the Company has not been able to raise the necessary capital to sustain operations.

Since the Company will file for bankruptcy, the Company will request that the NOTC registration of the Company's ordinary shares is suspended.

Questions regarding the further bankruptcy proceedings should be addressed to the bankruptcy trustee when appointed by the Trondheim district court.

Golar Acquires All Outstanding Minority Interests in the FLNG Hilli

Company news

2024-12-24 11:30:02

Golar LNG Limited ("Golar" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that the company has acquired Seatriums and Black & Veatchs minority ownership interests in the FLNG Hilli. The acquisitions comprise all third-party interests in the asset, including a total of 5.45% common units, 10.9% Series A shares and 10.9% Series B shares. The transaction is equivalent to ~8% of the full FLNG capacity. The total consideration for the acquisitions is $90.2 million, of which $59.9m is in equity and $30.3 million is a pro-rata share in the existing FLNG Hilli debt facility. The full economic interest of the increased ownership in FLNG Hilli will be effective from 1^st of January 2025.

The FLNG Hilli is currently contracted to Perenco in Cameroon, until contract expiry in July 2026. The asset is then intended to relocate to Argentina to start a 20-year contract for Southern Energy, a consortium of leading natural gas producers in Argentina. The Southern Energy contract remains subject to defined conditions precedent, including an export license, environmental assessment and Final Investment Decision by Southern Energy.

Since her contract start-up in 2018 the FLNG Hilli has demonstrated market leading operational uptime for FLNGs globally. The asset has delivered 124 LNG cargoes and offloaded more than 8.5 million tons of LNG.

In addition, Seatrium and Golar have agreed to resolve other remaining open items, resulting in a $7 million payment by Golar to Seatrium in relation to a Hilli Train 3 utilization bonus and settlement of historical work related to former Golar owned LNGC, the Golar Gandria. Following these resolutions there are no outstanding contractual arrangements between Seatrium and Golar related to existing assets.

Golar CEO Karl-Fredrik Staubo commented: Golar is pleased to take full ownership of FLNG Hilli. The increased ownership will give immediate cash flow accretion and is expected to add approximately $0.5bn of Adjusted EBITDA backlog¹. We would like to thank our long-term partners Seatrium and Black &Veatch as co-investors and we look forward to continue to work with both organizations in our ongoing and future FLNG growth ambitions.  

1. Adjusted EBITDA backlog: This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. In the context of this press release it represents the Seatrium and Black & Veatch share of FLNG Hillis estimated contracted fee income for the assets current contract together with a future contract that is subject to a Final Investment Decision, less forecast operating expenses for these contracts. Adjusted EBITDA backlog should not be considered as an alternative to net income/(loss) or any other measure of our financial performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Fikk ja til settefisksatsing på Vevelstad

Statsforvalteren i Nordland har sagt ja til storsatsingen på settefisk i Vevelstad. Settefiskproduksjonen er ventet å gi mellom 20 og 30 arbeidsplasser.

Siden i sommer har søknaden om å få etablere et settefiskanlegg som kan fostre opp mellom 15 og 20 millioner laksesmolt, ligget på Statsforvalterens bord. Denne uka kom gladmeldingen tikkende inn til Torghatten Aqua og Aquaculture Innovation-eide Vevelstad Settefisk på Toft i Brønnøysund.
«Statsforvalteren i Nordland innvilger søknad om tillatelse etter forurensningsloven, fra Vevelstad Settefisk AS. Tillatelsen er vedlagt og gjelder for et årlig fôrforbruk på inntil 5676 tonn til produksjon av settefisk av laks ved lokalitet Lauknes i Vevelstad kommune, skriver Statsforvalteren.

Mange arbeidsplasser
Daglig leder i Vevelstad Settefisk, Knut Bråthen setter stor pris på førjulsgaven.
- Dette er virkelig en gladnyhet å få, og betyr at vi nå er veldig nærme å kunne bygge et banebrytende settefiskanlegg på Vevelstad, midt i hjertet av Nordland. Vi har også fått tillatelse på hele volumet vi har søkt om, slik vi håpet på, sier Knut Bråthen.
Går det som Bråthen og Vevelstad Settefisk planlegger, vil det nye settefiskanlegget bidra til å skape 20 til 30 nye arbeidsplasser.
-Det bor knapt 500 personer i Vevelstad og etableringen vil bety mye for kommunen. Etableringen vil styrke Vevelstads posisjon som en nyskapende aktør i akvakulturnæringen, bidra med konkrete arbeidsplasser, samt gi hele regionen et økonomisk løft, sier Bråthen.

Opptil én kilo
Den over 100 mål store tomta er fra før ferdig regulert og godkjent for akvakultur. Nå når også Statsforvalteren i Nordland gir tommel opp, gjenstår kun en tillatelse fra Mattilsynet, før Nordland fylkeskommune formelt kan tildele konsesjonen til det som vil bli et stort settefiskanlegg.
- Planen vår er å fostre opp mellom 15 og 20 millioner smolt årlig, på Vevelstad. Fiskestørrelsen vil variere fra 150 gram til én kilo, sier Bråthen.

Vil begynne i 2025
Han krysser fingrene for at Mattilsynets avgjørelse også er rett rundt hjørnet, slik at man kan komme i gang med selve byggingen av anlegget i løpet av 2025.
– Jeg er oppvokst på Vevelstad, så jeg ser veldig frem til å være med på å bygge opp store lokale og regionale verdier for kommunen, Helgeland og hele næringen, sier Knut Bråthen, daglig leder i Vevelstad settefisk.

Fakta:
Vevelstad Settefisk er eid av Torghatten Aqua-selskapet, Aquaculture Innovation, som holder til på Toft i Brønnøysund. Mer om Torghatten Aqua og Aquaculture Innovation her: aquacultureinnovation.no og torghattenaqua.no

The words “believe”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “project”, “plan”, “potential”, “will”, “may”, “should”, “expect”, “pending” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our management’s examination of current or historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties.
